mustang stock block hp charts
anyone know where i can find a good accurate website that has hp/torque charts for stock ford cars. im trying to find out the stock amount of a 351c out of a 72 torino. i just put on some headers this afternoon and im trying to figure out the percentage and such. also does anyone know the percentage on an average shorty header? i know some of the longtubes around around 10-15% extra hp gain.
thanks guys!!!

hmmm. but it says "Beginning in 1972 all Ford Engines were rated SAE Net BHP and SAE net Torque, as installed in the vehicle"
so the real hp and not bhp is prob like the 69-70 right? 250hp and around 355lbs of torque?

no, it means at the flywheel on an engine dyno is what SAE net is. before it was SAE gross. bhp is another way of saying SAE net. so it's actually 161 horsepower at the fly, and 278tq at the fly - around 15% for driveline loss and thats about how much you have to the wheels. somewhere around 135 hp to the wheels.
